Abstract

Recognising that there is insufficient knowledge available to inform the scaling of education innovations in humanitarian settings, the Department for International Development (DFID), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) created the Humanitarian Education Accelerator (HEA), with the aim of understanding how to create the conditions necessary to scale existing pilot programmes.

The HEA engaged American Institutes for Research (AIR), to produce a meta-evaluation to synthesise the findings of mixed methods process evaluations of the HEA’s first cohort, as well as impact evaluations of 3 of the HEA’s grantees’ work.
